Ingredients

1 (6 1/2-pound) all-beef bologna
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups golden brown sugar
1 loaf sliced white bread
1 jar yellow mustard

Directions

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a large roasting pan with foil to cover well.

Using a small sharp knife score the top of the bologna, cutting about 1/4-inch deep, to create a diamond design.

Place the bologna, cut side down, in the foil lined pan and spread a thin layer of mustard on the exposed areas. Using your hands, press the brown sugar onto the Dijon mustard to create a coating. Carefully turn the bologna over, so that the cut side is facing up, and spread the top and sides with the remaining Dijon mustard. Press the remaining brown sugar onto the mustard to coat the entire bologna well.

Place the bologna in the top third of the oven. Bake for 5 hours, rotating the bologna slightly during cooking to keep the bottom from burning.

Remove the bologna from the pan and place it on a large platter. Slice the bologna 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick and make sandwiches on fresh white bread with yellow mustard...just the way Emeril likes it!

Super Bowl Tradition
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This has been a Super Bowl favorite of ours for the last 5 years. It is so good. It is easy to make and my Super Bowl... guests love it and expect it. I make a 4 pound one and cook it for 3 hours. My family are not big bologna eaters but they do love when I make this every year.Read more

Fantastic!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made this recipe at least 10 times over the past couple of years. It is requested all the time by family and friends.... Trust me, my friends are true foodies and they still love this simple, down home dish. I cook it at 225 degrees for about 6 hours. I don't know what Anonymous could do to make it turn out awful but something went wrong.Read more

A Super Super Bowl Tradition!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We make this every year to munch on while we watch the Super Bowl. There's usually only two of us, so we usually use a... smaller piece of bologna and don't always bake it as long. Then we cut it as we eat it, and put it on saltines with more mustard and slices of onion. YUM! I didn't think I liked bologna until my husband made this!Read more

Decent tasting. Easy to prep.
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

On Emeril's TV show, he first basted the bologna with melted butter. I did that too. 1/2 hr after putting in the oven, I... noticed a burning smell. The cookie sheet had bowed in the middle and the bologna had rolled to the edge. Most of the coating had dripped off onto the pan and oven bottom. Cleaned oven, tried to recoat bologna, made little wedges out of foil to chock the bologna from rolling again. Tasted OK.Read more
